Consideration: %pproved L--�Cenied this { day of CITY COUNCIL ACTION )ates of Council Consideration: Applicant's 3 i nature 19? , subject to the approved Denied this day of 19 with the following mendment: pie /I Form tit). lFi (over please) Planning Commission Information Sheet i Application No. 83039 Applicant: Zantigo Restaurants Location: 5532 Brooklyn Boulevard Request: Site and Building Plan, Special Use Permit The applicant requests site and building plan and special use permit approval to remodel the existing Happy Dragon restaurant at 5532 Brooklyn Boulevard to a Zantigo restaurant (classified as a convenience food restaurant) with a drive -up window. The property in question is zoned C2 and is bounded on the north by the Green Mill restaurant, on the east by the private access road serving establishments between Xerxes Avenue North and Brooklyn Boulevard, on the south by Farrell's and on the west by Brooklyn Boulevard. Convenience food restaurants are special uses in the C2 zoning district which cannot abut R1, R2 or R3 zoned property at either a property line or a street line. The land across Brooklyn Boulevard is zoned R1. However, abutment across a major thoroughfare with a right-of-way as extensive as in this case (e.g. over 100') and a frontage road has not been deemed to constitute abutment for the purposes of this section of the ordinance. Also, the land west of the frontage road is proposed for C1 uses in the Comprehensive Plan. Seating for the restaurant is to remain at 62 seats. There will be six (6) employees on the maximum shift. Thus, the parking requirement is 34 stalls. This amount has been provided, including two handicapped stalls. Access to the site is via two openings off the private access road. Although none of the stalls are angle stalls, an entrance sign at the north access and an exit -only sign at the south access create a counter -clockwise, one-way traffic flow. Two of the stalls have limited accessi- bility because of the movements of cars leaving the drive -up window. These should be designated for employee parking. The proposed drive -up window is to be located on the east side of the restaurant. A 10' wide driving lane is provided along the south and east sides of the building. There is stacking space for about five cars. A 3' wide concrete island is proposed south of the drive -up lane with an opening to allow cars to get out of the line and exit, if desired. Staff recommend that the proposed opening be closed and the 3' wide median be carried continuously around the driving lane. It should also be surrounded with B612 curb and gutter in accordance with Section 35-710 of the Zoning Ordinance. The landscape plan calls for a number of new plantings around the building and in three landscaped islands on the east side of the site. Thirty-three (33) Goldfinger Potentilla are indicated along the west and south sides of the building. Along the east side of the building, 15 Broadmoor Junipers, 5 Goldfinger Potentillas and 10 Columnar Buckthorn are shown. Plantings in the landscaped islands include: Broad - moor Junipers, Purple Leaf Plums, Varigated Dogwoods, Japanese Redleaf Barberry and Proebeli Spirea. No real changes are proposed in the drainage or utility plans. Curb delineation will be changed somewhat at the southwest and southeast corners of the site to better shape the new parking layout which includes four parallel stalls along the south side of the site. Zantigo does plan to change the exterior of the building from brick and exposed aggregate to stucco. The shingled mansard roof will be changed to a mansard with clay tile. Decorative wood posts will be placed on the east and west walls to add to the Mexican style being sought. The existing floor plan will not change drastically. All access to the building will be from the west side, while the existing east entrance will be converted to the drive -up window. The restrooms will be rearranged and a counter area roughly in the center of the building will be installed. Altogether, the plans are generally in order and approval is recommended, subject 8-4-83 -1- Application No. 83039 continued to at least the following conditions: 1. The special use permit is subject to all applicable codes, ordinances, and regulations and any violation thereof may be grounds for revocation. 2. Building plans are subject to review and approval by the Building Official with respect to applicable codes prior to the issuance of permits. 3. A site performance agreement and supporting financial guarantee (in an amount to be determined by the City Manager) shall be submitted prior to the issuance of permits to assure completion of approved site improvements. 4. Any outside trash disposal facilities and rooftop mechanical equipment shall be appropriately screened from view. 5. Plan approval is exclusive of all signery which is subject to Chapter 34 of the City Ordinances. 6. B612 curb and gutter shall be provided around all parking and driving areas. 7. The plan shall be modified to indicate a closed drive -up lane bounded by a 3' wide median and curb and gutter on the south and east prior to the issuance of permits. 8-4-83 -2-
